It's hard to come out with a perfect design even for continentals at times. If you wan balanced looks like 5 series or mazda six then pay the price. I believe this model is not that bad but interior wise is another matter. Fugly :/
Added on February 26, 2012, 3:12 am Uhmm... If u actually look at how they rebadge the asx then u can't really blame ppl for bashing proton for comin out with that design for inspira lol
Have you look into the interior? Apart from the leakage image, have you seen it better?
Am I the only one who think that the rear is the result of a moulding process gone terribly wrong? Other than that, the offerings are excellent for the price (only if they last long though).
No. You opinion is the popular opinion.
I think the back is better than front. Front not sharp enough. Back is safe and plain. It just that you guys was hoping the back will be similar like Tuah concept.
this is accident going to happen, fixing what ever wifi or internet access to the car is just going to encourage hands and minds off the road.. putting your mind on the internet device will only endanger you, no matter how many air bags offered..
Better than took out your phone to find your way around with the gps.
*Update : Saya baru saja mendapat maklumat tidak rasmi dari kenalan yang bekerja sebagai SA Proton. Menurut beliau, Proton P3-21A akan ditawarkan dalam dua varian, di mana model Executive juga dikatakan bakal dilengkapi enjin CFE dan CVT 6-kelajuan, manakala model Premium dengan enjin CFE dan CVT 7-kelajuan.
Harga Executive bermula dari RM65K, manakala harga maksimum Premium ditetapkan sebanyak RM75K. Pengumuman nama sebenar P3-21A akan diadakan pada 13 Mac, manakala pelancaran pada 15 atau 16 Mac 2012. Sama ada betul atau tidak maklumat ini, kita perlu menunggu sehingga salinan brochure didedahkan nanti, insyaallah.
"Dengar cerita tarikh pelancaran model ini ditunda hingga ke hujung Mac, atas sebab-sebab yang tak dapat dielakkan. Nama model ini masih lagi menjadi tanda tanya, ada yang kata bermula dari huruf P & hujungnya bukan lagi berakhir dengan A, yang pasti kata sumber tu perkataan yang dijadikan nama model ini BUKAN perkataan Bahasa Malaysia/Inggeris… JOM KITA TEKA"
no need to waste money do crash thingy, when you say this, remember all malaysian are driving this car, how can you even have such a thinking in the first pls?
yea, ppl hated us, so give them a car that is dangerous that can kill them? those designer get paid right? not volunteer right? dont like the job, pls apply to some other company la.
the last sentences shows that, thank goodness there are HUMAN working in p1, not crazy ppl. imagine ppl balik kampung and whole family died in a badly designed and dangerous p1 car.
car making is not just a business. poisonous nasi goreng can only kill 1 ppl.
stop the attitude like i'm doing you a favor, malaysian. remember, you/they get paid.
I think what he meant that all the effort Proton did will not be appreciated by us. Even so their car is good and safe, people still don't trust. Look at the initial response of P3-21A.
ok so if dun talk price, lets compare P321 with Peugeot 508.. both 1.6 turbo engine.. who win in all areas? performance, safety, handling, interior space etc?
you said comparing engine only. Then want to compare all areas as well? If want to compare, compare within it category. 508 is in D class.
if this car fails, proton could be ended up like saab..saab even with its good looking new saab 9-5 , high tech,high crash test rating, global brand, still can go bankcrupt..ohw, but proton doesnt compete in an open market BTW..
so now proton is moving so call our ideal car, but still can't match the big name. Are you going to support proton? Quality wise no comment, but specs list did gave us a very positive image.
If to support, this is the last support. Proton already messed up when the 'tongkat' was not lifted. During the time, they didn't do well. Only now they want to start to create the brand image, which is very difficult.
